Editorial note

The Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 stands out for its impressive performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i7 8th generation processor. This model offers high speed and efficiency, particularly when executing demanding tasks. Additionally, its 13.5-inch touchscreen, with a resolution of 2256 x 1504 pixels, ensures an immersive and enjoyable visual experience. Its sleek and modern design, combined with a weight of 1283 g, makes it easy to carry on a daily basis. However, the connectivity of the Surface Laptop 2 could be improved. While it features Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.1 for reliable wireless connections, the lack of USB Type-A ports and HDMI ports limits connection options with other devices. Regarding storage, the 256 GB capacity may be insufficient for users handling large media files. Furthermore, the absence of an integrated memory card reader and optical drive may pose a drawback for some. Acoustically, the stereo audio system provides a satisfactory sound experience, but the lack of a numeric keypad may affect usability, especially for those who need to input numbers regularly. Finally, security is enhanced by the TPM chip, protecting users' sensitive data. Although the product's weight is reasonable, some may find it a bit heavy compared to other lighter models on the market. Overall, the Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 is a solid choice for those seeking optimal performance and an attractive design, while keeping in mind its limitations in connectivity and storage.
